Canada Express Entry is the most popular immigration system offering Canadian permanent residence, introduced by the federal government in January 2015 to replace the old “first come, first served” process.
What is Express Entry and how does it work?
Express Entry is not an immigration program in itself, it is actually an online system created to manage Canada’s immigration application intake.
Applicants who meet eligibility criteria submit an online profile known as an Expression of interest (EOI), under one of 3 federal Canada immigration programs or a participating provincial immigration program, to the Express Entry Pool.
Candidates’ profiles are ranked against each other according to a points-based system called the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). The highest-ranked candidates will be considered for an invitation to apply (ITA) for permanent residence. Those receiving an ITA must quickly submit a complete application and pay the processing fees, within a delay of 60 days. The federal government aims to process complete PR applications in only 6 months.
Features of Express Entry
For Candidates

- A job offer is a significant benefit, but not required
For Employer
- Select pre-screened skilled immigrants
- No government fees
- Fast processing
Federal Skilled Workers
Federal skilled workers are selected as permanent residents based on their ability to become economically established in Canada. A foreign national is assigned a point score based on six selection factors, which include official language ability, education, work experience, age, arranged employment, and adaptability. Applicants must have a minimum of 67 points to be eligible to stay in this pool.

Canada Provincial Nominee Immigration Programs
Under a shared jurisdiction between Ottawa and the provinces, Canada operates a two-tiered immigration system, offering programs for skilled workers, at both federal and provincial levels.
Through a network of Nominee Programs (PNP), almost all of Canada’s ten provinces and three territories can nominate skilled worker candidates for admission to Canada with the specific skills required by their local economies. Successful candidates who receive a provincial or territorial nomination can then apply for Canadian permanent residence through federal immigration authorities. This is an important component of all provincial programs.
Many provinces also run their own categories under the Canada Express Entry System. As a result, the provinces have an increasing role in the selection of economic immigrants.
